Tnx Jan.  

I have a WP document that is a tabulation of data.  When saving as .doc format, 
then opening with AOO, it got messed up; loss of columns/row lines and blank 
pages.  Perhaps I need to rewrite that data in a database table using AOO Base, 
if this effort fails. 

Also, have documents that are letter-type, etc., but have not as yet tried to 
use MS Word (from MS Office 2003/2007) to AOO.  

I thought I would try LibreOffice, and did not want to make mistake of using an 
"unusual" download website. 

Regards, 
VinceB.
